WWE RAW Preview: WWE Championship Match and more LIVE tonight

This week on RAW should continue the build to the Royal Rumble on January 20th in Boston, MA. Here is what we have to look forward to with tonight’s show.

These matches have been announced…

Falls Count Anywhere Match for WWE Championship: The Miz defends against John Morrison

It is surprising that these two former Tag Team Champions are having their eventual WWE title match already. Morrison won the #1 Contender spot at TLC, so he would wait until the Royal Rumble, right? WWE seems want to ramp up interest in this feud, don’t expect Morrison to capture the WWE Championship but expect some crazy amazing highlight move from him. The Miz will crawl out of this match with the WWE Championship, with JoMo chasing the title. No matter what it will be fun to see the rare WWE Championship match on RAW.

The Nexus lead by CM Punk

The new management of the Nexus is going to make an appearance for sure on RAW. The Cena fans will be booing up a storm when the smirking Punk and his new gang of cohorts get on the mic. Also interesting will be where does former Nexus leader Wade Barrett get put into this situation? Whether or not we get the injured John Cena is up in the air.

The CM Punk/Cena story will definitely get booked for Royal Rumble, or both men will be put into the Rumble match itself.

ROYAL RUMBLE QUALIFYING MATCHES?

Expect some mid-card wrestlers like Santino Marella and Ted Dibase to battle it out for one of those exclusive 30 spots in the 60 minute over-the-top rope Royal Rumble. It has been surprising to see WWE not build any matches to this month’s big pay per view so far.

Triple H making a big surprise return?

The Game is expected to come out in a been-there-done move as the ‘surprise entrant’ into the Royal Rumble. It would be pretty sweet to see the 13-time World Champion to strut out and send Sheamus running out of the ring.
